Hi everybody!
After using fs2002 for a while now, it would be interesting to use more than one monitor, maybe like three... one front view with panel, one view to the right, one to the left. What would be the easiest way to do this.. I know you guys out there know the answer ! Cheers, Oliver

The best way to have multiple external views is to have other computers networked to the main one. Each computer would use Wideview to connect to the server (main computer).

Depends on your specs.
I don't get bad performance but then I have a high end PC.

Check this thread on this board infact.

How are you using it though.........
One view split into three or three different views?

olinew,

Run, do not walk, to:

www.schiratti.com/dowson

That is the WideView author's site. He has other stuff you also need, all freeware, like FSUIPC, which you simply MUST get because a lot of other stuff assumes that you have it. (And because it is VERY useful in its own right.)
